Oh ya....you are truly CONFUSED if you want Ms. Pouty Face to be your next wife.
I can kind of guess my future wife actually plays for the other team. But that's okay, i will continue to profess my undying love for her even if the feeling cannot be reciprocate.
Earlier in the week, Aza and Bea were put in the last group to tee off on Friday, but I guess they're not going to make it...J. Concolino and A. Uehara have those spots now.

Can she remain Smile Candy when grouped with Stacy Lewis on Friday?

Yumiko Yoshida rippin' the new XXIO 9 driver...but where is the digit '9' on the club? There's no '8' on the XXIO 8 driver. Keeping the numbers off the clubs probably helps with the resale value.

ONOFF is keeping tabs on Ji Hee Lee this week...that's a lot of attention as Da Ye Na didn't qualify for this one.
ONOFF calls their fairway woods "fairway arms" and they call their hybrids "fairway wings".
Lee uses ONOFF Kuro irons (5 thru PW)

I haven't seen any pix of the winner's trophy or prizes...considering the sponsor, maybe she'll get one of these:
Classic cutsieness of Asian gals...different color shoe laces and I've seen them with different color nail polish on their hands and feet...but I do like the cutsieness.
Do any of you believe Ji Ya Shin will return to the LPGA? Unless she wins a LPGA event....I don't see JYS going to Q-school anytime soon.
Whan should just hand Ji Ya, Sharon and Sky LPGA membership cards...why?.....why not!
I was surprised to read that JiYai Shin was thinking about coming back to the LPGA. Thought that she didn't like being so far from home, family, etc. Not sure how old she was when she played on the LPGA - maybe now she's more ready for it. Not the golf part, but the distance, travel, etc. Hope she comes back!
I think she needed to set new challenges for herself. She accomplished almost all of her goals and saw the passion going away, so she wanted a change of scenery. I fully believe Jiyai would make the jump back if she feels refreshed.

In the article, she said she left LPGA because she has accomplished her goals and JLPGA provided new goals for her. REALLY ??
It would be like Inbee Park quitting LPGA to try to win the player of the year of the Symetra Tour.
The fact that she is not on Category 3 ( major winner past 5 years ) means that she has returned her tour card. It's odd that she felt not only the need to quit the tour, but also to return her tour card...
Centurion I see you are going through a rotation of idiot Mericans as your avatars....Pouty Face Lewis, Trump and now Bubba "Dbag" Watson...well play sir, well played.
I guess we will never know the real reason Shin left the USA. I assume she just doesn't like it here just like Kareem Abdul Jabbar hated living in Milwaukee.

What's weird about Jiyai's defection was how complete and quick it was. You may recall she was to be the defending champion at the 2014 Aussie Open, the first event that year on tour. But suddenly, weeks before that defense, her name disappeared from the LPGA website. She not only did not show up to defend, she has only played a couple of LPGA events since then. And there wasn't much explanation for this very weird happening from the LPGA (Shin's excuse was she wanted to be closer to her family in Asia).
There have been plenty of instances of players earning cards but not playing on tour. Usually it's because their status is not good, and so they would rather focus on their home tour. Jung Eun Lee, who is currently leading this week's KLPGA event, is an example of that.
But Shin seems to have actively resigned from the tour. She has no status, even that she would have earned as a Major winner in 2012. Why didn't she simply let her card lapse like those others did? Maybe there would have been fines or something, who knows.
Anyways, I sure hope she does return. I've missed her!
I didn't get a chance to watch the event last night; when I tuned in, they were showing the final round of 2014. Anyhoo, seems like the JLPGA Koreans are bringing it! Ha Neul Kim shot a 66, as did Mi Jeong Jeon, and both are just a shot out of the lead. It's early of course, but how would a rookie class look next year if it included Ha Neul and In Gee? GO SKY!
Jiyai Shin was just a shot behind that with a 67, and Sun Ju Ahn shot a 68. Two more awesome players I would love to see over here (in Shin's case, see again).
Also interesting to see Ha Na Jang and Hyo Joo Kim shooting 69s. Could one of these rookies make a last minute push to challenge Sei Young for ROY?
Bo Mee is also ready to make a charge from that level. Have a Coke and a Smile (Candy)
Saw the highlights from Mi Hyang win last year, for the first time. Love her clutch birdie put, after other players had made theirs, on the fourth playoff hole. She didn't seem to excited after holing the winning putt on the fifth playoff hole. Its like she wasn't sure that she had won.
